Default MoneyMaker tomatoes

The MoneyMaker tomatoes in the greenhouse are beginning to ripen, however the fruit is small. I have several of these growing outdoors, and the fruit is also smaller than I expected. All of my other tomato varieties seem to be growing normally, and I am wondering if the seeds could be the cause. The taste of the fruit is fine though.

I just could not wait to try my first tomato of the season, and yes I have been a vegetarian for decades.

Yeah, I was a vegetarian before it became a fad. I placed a the plate and other items in the photo for a reference to the size of the tomato....

Agreed

Oh Streuth!! You are making me hungry! I adore salad butties - really piled high with salad so that they are nearly impossible to eat!!
